Arusha National Park is one of the most beautiful national parks in northern Tanzania. The park is located in the foothills of Mount Meru, one of Africa's most spectacular volcanoes, as well as the country's fifth highest peak and second tallest mountain. It is home to magnificent natural species such as alpine vegetation, savannah, lush rainforests, buffaloes, leopards, giraffes, warthogs, red duikers, bush backs, zebras, elephants, hippos, white and black colobus monkeys, vervet monkeys, blue monkeys, and a variety of bird species such as flamingos, cranes, African fish eagles, hartlaub's turaco, and secretary birds. The unforgiving landscapes of Mount Meru and Ash cone, scenic views of Momella Lakes, tropical forest glades, and Ngurdoto Crater are just a few of the beautiful attractions you will enjoy and make your day trip exciting. You will be able to do game viewing, nature walks, visit Mount Meru Waterfalls, and go on organized hiking with a ranger before flying back home with a fresh mind and memorable experience.
